Vector VR1000 GNSS Receiver Quick Reference Guide
(QRG)
Introduction
Created by Hemisphere GNSS, this QRG provides information and
the steps to follow to set up your Vector VR1000 GNSS Receiver.
VR1000 key
Key features of the VR1000 include:
features
• High-precision positioning in Athena RTK, Atlas L-band, and SBAS
• Athena technology for improved RTK performance, especially
with GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou
• Atlas* L-band technology providing highly accurate corrections
over the air (*Requires the purchase of a subscription)
• Heave of 30 cm RMS (DGNSS), 10 cm (RTK)
• Pitch and roll < 1° RMS
• Heading accuracy up to .01°
Mounting
When considering where to mount the VR1000, consider the
following satellite reception recommendations:
• Ensure cable length is adequate to route into the machine to
reach a breakout box or terminal strip.
• Do not mount the receiver where environmental conditions
exceed those specified in the VR1000 Technical Specifications of
this document.
• Route cables away from any potential source of mechanical
damage.
